Facebook/Text/Online Forum?
 
There's an increasing number of Faceboox/text/online threads popping up.
I personally think it'd be a good idea to give this stuff it's own section, as virtual stuff is ENTIRELY different to face-to-face pickup. Also, there are a number of people (including myself) who don't indulge in the online stuff, who gain very little from these threads.

What'cha think?

Darood 11-06-2011 05:43 PM

If everyone decided to jump off a bridge would you?

Just because its the easiest thing doesnt mean it should be encouraged. Otherwise there will be threads popping up in the fitness section asking how you can photoshop your picture so you look good.

I think I follow.
Are you saying that we should not do this, on the basis that if we do, we are inviting discussion on these topics, thus making them even more prevalent?

If so, I disagree. People are going to post threads whether there's a proper home for it or not.

i vote yay to the changes!

we should also have a mental masturbation section for ideas peeps want others to test out and for field reports where they almost got laid.

Status 11-06-2011 11:43 PM

Its early days, but its starting to look like a hung jury.
perhaps its too soon to split it out into its own forum.

I'll revisit this in 6 months when we're getting crazy traffic yo

daleinthedark 11-06-2011 11:45 PM

I really feel that if you develop yourself using the material and techniques discussed then Facebook and text game really falls into place, what's the difference between a virtual and face-to-face game of push-pull?!?

Phil 11-06-2011 11:54 PM

u dont need to learn virtual game if u know how to face to face...

people are gettin lazy!

tryin to guarantee sex from afar...

PostScript 12-06-2011 09:09 AM

Its due to people feeling like this that made me suggest it.

Indeed. Something I've always tried to avoid is having too many seperate forums that barely get any traffic.

Kowalski nailed the underlying problem of the universe: shite threads along the lines of "I exchanged two messages on Facebook to a girl I have never met before, she no longer replies to my messages, what do I do?! I have been receiving psychological counciling to get over this trauma, but it hasn't helped so now I am posting here. I am a newbie, go easy on me."


Tw1sted, I demand a new URL! Not a sub-part of PUA Forum.

Instead, its own seperate web site for their stuff: www. facebook-saddos-pickup-forum .co.uk

Rebus,
You such a fucking wanker....! For some newbies, these are real issues for them. You poking fun shows you just a stuck up fuckwit, full of shit.

Guest 12-06-2011 11:41 PM

PUA Death Match !!!

Rebus 13-06-2011 12:39 AM

LOL!!

@legend - relax dude, take a chill pill!

It's just a thread for Tw1sted to elict opinions about where Facebook/Text/Online stuff should go. A personal opinion was duly provided.

Notably, I'm not pumping that sarcasm directly onto the actual threads styled like the bold text, where each thread is personal to a particular poster... "I exchanged two messages on Facebook to a girl I have never met before, she no longer replies to my messages, what do I do?! I have been receiving psychological counciling to get over this trauma, but it hasn't helped so now I am posting here. ".
[Obv, for these ppl I say --- get out and sarge in real life, fail, fail, fail and learn from it --- get out and do some fun stuff in an exicting lifestyle of hobbies and interests --- and don't have such a massively disproportionate amount of time [some of them imply it is 100% of their pickup activities (!)] spent as a keyboard jokey strategising over digital birds who are possibly attention-whores in IRL, and/or size 16 IRL, and/or men IRL.]

End of sermon,
St Rebus

Knave 13-06-2011 01:53 PM

I agree that using facebook and POF on its own is just sad AFC stuff and there is no place for it on here, but look at it like this.

Take this typical scenario. Sad AFC has been emailing this one girl ‘it has to be this girl’ for months, he can’t get her. In seeks advice from oracle google. He see’s a section ‘Facebook/Text/Online’ within seconds of entering the site, all the info he needs, he logs back into facebook full of new ideas he gets on her on date, then its ‘so where do you come from? What do you do? Can I buy you a drink? You’re pretty? How long you been etc after boring etc’. He’s back again ‘guys she rejected me, what am going to do she is the one’. He provides entertainment for the next few months and is out sarging and filling field reports, eventually its you really helped me here’s a twenty quid donation.

Fantasy? No a very real snap shot of the type of punter society has created. Facebook, twitter and POF are a part of our way of life. You can’t avoid online shit well you can but you’ll be left behind bit like not joining the euro. Do you think PUA’s in the 80’s were saying ‘no man’ don’t use a mobile phone, mobiles are for pussy’s with no game’

I’ve had real success on facebook people that know my posts know that I don’t brag but I really can’t thank fb enough for getting me laid and fuck anyone who thinks it is not a skill. Its a written version of verbal PU and you have to create interest ‘every single word you type becomes essential’ I challenge anyone to turn an email interaction with someone you don’t know to then pumping her on the sofa within two weeks.

The girl I’m with now, I can honestly say fb helped the process, so met in a bar, gamed her, dated her, become fb friends, she saw girls leaving posts on my wall almost daily, she admitted to me a few weeks, ago she was jealous as hell.

As a separate website hmm not a bad idea I’m sure there will be one or two springing up.

I understand the testerone filled comments fuck facebook/POF pussys etc, I couldn’t agree more but online can be used as part of PU it counts for opener, comfort, repoire and close (number close), seduction will ALWAYS take place in an actual meeting and you need the skills for that as well. Now we have Jaz on POF and doing ok by all accounts.

Love it or hate the posts will increase and I suggest its reviewed in 3 months not 6, but that’s your call twisted. As a final comment I was reading old posts on here relating to fb, it’s funny some of the members back then were saying fb is for pussys are now commenting on fb game as though its ok, no naming and shaming but what more proof do you need?

The posts will increase.

Seriously do I need to put forward any arguments against txt game? Thought not.

Nothing but with online you can move past a lot of stuff and straight to a face to face talk with the person. In a bar, you have to maneuvre and chat up 2 or more girls, which is much much harder.

My point was that online stuff helps skip a lot of awkward stuff when there are 2 girls or more. It essentially skips to an isolation where you arrange to meet 1 girl in a bar and then you can work all the live stuff.
Chatting up sets is a difficult game simply because getting 1 girl away from her friend is going to be difficult.
Face to face with 1 girl is much much easier.

Based on logistics alone, yes online dating makes that easier but if you're doing it right logistics will take care of themselves 90% of the time when a girl is attracted to you.

but

you miss out on creating physical attraction and intimacy that you get with Kino, the full on rip your clothes of factor. that and you can sound out lies and personality easily face to face than online...

That's why you meet them later.
It's not possible to just turn up at their door and bang them...unless of course they are a slut.

Haha of course you meet them - you are missing out on the point, the joy of human interaction! to be good at PU and game you have to be good socially

Online game takes hours if not days whereas when you are in a bar, shop, library, sex dungeon etc. you know nearly instantly if a girl is into you and within 10mins whether it is worth pursuing!

Don't get me wrong, internet game on dating sites is fun but it's something to do whilst checking your hotmail...

fair point. just dont make it all ur about, it will consume u

PostScript 18-09-2011 10:00 AM

Changing my view on this one, starting to think isolating the facebook/online/text stuff might be a good idea.

PS

lucidfer 18-09-2011 11:04 PM

my vote doesnt count for much, but I'd like to see a conglomerated section that specialized in anything that wasn't face-to-face. Body language & tone is one thing, but talking only through logic has its pros and cons.

Breaker 19-09-2011 02:38 AM

It's a good idea, for those that hate it and don't want anything to do with it,- it's all in once place and easy to ignore.

For those that want it, like it, use it ect they have a place to go to sort it.

Personally, I find technology a handy tool for many reasons, mainly efficiency and convenience + there is a skill to doing it well.

Knave 20-09-2011 07:11 PM

Hey Tw1sted shouldn't this be reviewed? Its starting to look pretty unanimous.

Lovefish 22-10-2011 07:45 PM

Yeh there should deffo be an online section!!
Ive had great success with it as a supplement to my gaming in the field and think a place to cover this area is pretty important:puaforum:

PS

That's what I'm scared off. After introducing the beginners section, I really don't want to this the forum out any further. Especially since Google fucked us over.
I'm afraid this is going to have to go on the backburner.

Maxemillion 23-12-2011 05:05 PM

altho game IRL is all that counts, there is no way of avoiding contacting a girl through electronics if you met her cold approach. You have to use a phone or computer, would be interesting to see what POF/facebook game looks like. espec cos most girls are glued to their mobiles these days as portable state generators. RSD fans know what I mean. BOOM
